a US artist who painted large beautiful paintings of flowers and animal bones. Her later paintings were often influenced by the desert scenery of New Mexico, where she went to live (1887-1986). born Nov. 15, 1887, near Sun Prairie, Wis., U.S. died March 6, 1986, Santa Fe, N.M. U.S. painter. She studied art in Chicago and New York City, where she met and married the photographer Alfred Stieglitz. By the early 1920s, her highly individualistic painting style had emerged, as typified by such works as Black Iris (1926). Her subjects were often enlarged views of the skulls and other bones of animals, flowers and plant organs, shells, rocks, mountains, and other natural forms. Her mysteriously suggestive images of bones and flowers set against a perspectiveless space have inspired a variety of erotic, psychological, and symbolic interpretations. Her later works celebrate the clear skies and desert landscapes of New Mexico, where she moved after her husband's death in 1946. She is regarded by critics as one of the most original and important American artists, and her works are highly popular among the general public
